HUFF Realty's Annual Toy Drive Nets Over 3,000 Toys for Cincinnati Shriners Hospital

Posted to

The 10th Annual HUFF Realty Toy Drive for Cincinnati Shriners Hospital resulted in more than 3,000 toys for the young patients at the hospital.

From Nov. 28 to Dec. 24, each of the 12 HUFF offices throughout the area participated in gathering toys and cash donations, with the monies being used for major purchases such as a Wii, Wii Fit and a camcorder by the Child Life Committee of the hospital.

"Once again the generosity of our community has made this a successful event," said Jim Huff, chairman and CEO of HUFF Realty.

"Despite the effects of our economy, expectations were exceeded. This was the best year yet.”

"We thank everyone who donated toys and money to this worthwhile cause. Their gifts will help brighten the days of children who have so many obstacles to overcome.”

Planes Moving and Storage contributed collection boxes, transported the toys to Shriners, and collected toys at their place of business.

The toys were delivered to the patients of the Cincinnati Shriners Hospital Tuesday, Jan. 20. Douser Huff, HUFF Realty's fire safety mascot, helped distribute some of the toys to the children.
